it was considered too temporal a thing, to be thought of only after temporal affairs had been attended to; and even among themselves the evil effects of this was sometimes seen, Some were heard to grumble and to envy the position of their Protestant fellow-citizen, and to ask what was the use of their religion and prayers when God had forsaken them and prospered those of another religion.They were not, however, to notice this; they were not to pay attention to the temporal prosperity of the Protestant or the Jew, but to continue as Catholics faithful to their religion and Jesus Christ, not asking too much, as the Apostles James and John, to be answered with: \u2018\u201c Ye know not what yo ask 3\u201d but always thoughtful and trusi- ing in God\u2019s mercies, careless of temporal blessings, trampling them under foot in Ÿ order that they might be able to drink of that cup which Christ had drunk of, and to partake of His eternal kingdom, which the preacher trusted would be the case with all his hearers.ZION CHURCH (CONGREGATIONALL,) At evening prayer the sermon was preached by the Rev.Mr.Bray, who is about to return to England, He took for his text \u2018\u2018 The Prodigal Son.\u201d The rev.gentleman, having given a sketch of a previous sermon on the same subject, pictured the youth in the fields feeding hogs ; he had become estranged from all that was good, also he had become estranged from his friends because he was poor.If there was anything in which the Jews resembled the present generation it must be in this, Wicked men will tolerate anything but poverty in a friend.The lad, after a time, throws hinsself on the grass ; his face, although disfigured by the dram of debauchery, still looks strangely out of place there.There is something in that thin, worn countenance which shows that he was not wont to fill his belly with the husks that the swine did eat, He ig doubtless sleeping, dreaming of home, of all its pleasures, of his old father praying \u201c0 God of Abraham, bless the lad,\u201d and, standing up, he says, \u201cI will arise and go to my Father?\u201d We have experienced somewhat the same thing; we have been carried back to the hours of childhood, and of innocent amusement, and we wish that we were back at our father\u2019s home, where we had enough to eat and to spare, Thank God for such moments, for such home voices ; they lead us to look back on our checquered misspent years, and we remember early vows.Young maa, do you hear voices now asking you to awake ; to leave your life of wickedness and sensuality ; to go to your Father and get forgiveness ?If you do recollect itis the voice of home ; your Father is calling you home ; calling you to him fo give up all wickednes and He will lead you home.The poor prodigal determines that the first word that shall pass his thin withered lips should be \u2018\u2018 Father.\u201d He had been sinful, thrown away his substance, lived a dreadful life, but he would not give up his sonship; he might be turned away from the door of his home, but at any rate he could say \u2018\u2018 Father.\u201d So with wus; sinful as you are God is your Father; don\u2019t give that up, determine to call Him Father.Jesus Himself teaches us, when we pray, to say PRICE ONE CENT \u2018\u2018Our Father.\u201d Turn to the prodigal, again, He starts up, and, standing on his trembling limbs, he says, \u201cI will go If I have to beg I will beg at my father\u2019s door.Ihave a story to tell\u2014it shall be to my father.Did ke go about brooding about it ; did he call his master, and, in some round about way, give notice, or did he eall his friends together and tell them of his resolution?Not atall.As soon as he had formed the resolution he started off.So never put off anything your fine feelings suggest.Act at once.If the prodigal had asked his employer if he should go, it is probable that he would have been laughed out of his fine feelings, and would have gone back to the husks and died.Don\u2019t give the devil a month\u2019s notice when you want to leave his service.Don\u2019t trifle with your feelings.Don\u2019t imagine that you can bring about a reformation gradually ; that you can give up your wicked habits gradually.Act at once, throw it all over on the instant, and, like the poor young man, depart.The rev, preacher then described the home the prodigal had left, All hope and spirit he was when he left, unlike the quiet elder brother ; half his father\u2019s life appeared to go with the lad, and all the joy of the house.After that messages came, satisfactory at first, but afterwards that he was an hireling, and his dowry gone to the winds.Then the joy of the house truly went, and the poor father\u2019s heart grows uneasy and sad.There is nothing so crushing to the heart of a father than the ill-doing of his son.Friends, do not give your fathers such trouble, do not pain them.If the earthly father feels so, what must the grief of our Heavenly Father be.He watched the prodigal world; all men thought not of their father, so Gods Son came and said, \u201cTurn ye, God is still your Father; He will be happy to receive you when you determine to journey homeward,\u201d The meeting was then described in able terms, The prodigal was not allowed to finish the simple sentence he had composed.The word Father stood at the head of it ; that was enough, and, with a kiss, his utterance was stopped.The son came back asking for a crust, and is feasted ; asked\u2019 that he might become a servant, and was treated like a prince; he asked little and received much.We ask that we may be forgiven, become as a servant, and we are not only forgiven, but we become princes, and live for ever at home with the Monarch of All, There is joy in the conquest of knowledge\u2014in the conquest of men\u2014but the joy over a returned wanderer is greater than all ; it is unutterable.Seek this joy and you will find it.Only say \u2018\u2018Father, [ have sinned.\u201d The child may change and become wayward ; the \u201cFather\u201d never.The mother will cling to her profligate son through all his sins, and kisses the clay when life is gone, Such is God, amidst all the vicissitudes of life He is unchangable ; no power can pluck us from His hand\u2014love unending, that was told us on the cross of Calvary.A Church believing this cannot fall ; like a beautiful river, it will draw men to it.The world will at some time recognize it as the best, the only name, whereby we can be saved.Let us shout it, let us sing it in our sweetest strains, let us whisper it when dying, \u2018 Abba, Father,\u201d The preacher, in afew appropriate terms, afterwards bid the congregation good-bye, saying that he believed that there was a great future before the people of the congregation.Heheartily thanked them for their kindness to him during his sojourn amongst them, The Rev.Mr.Bennett, of Lockport, N.Y., will occupy the pulpit for the next month, ST.PAUL'S (PRESBYTERIAN.) Yesterday morning this spacious edifice was filled to overflowing with members of the various Presbyterian congregations of this city.At 11 o'clock, the hour when the service commenced, it was scarcely possible to find a vacant seat in the whole church, although the seating capacity is very large.The rush was occasioned by the fact that the eminent Scottish divine, Rev.Mr, Somerville, of Glasgow, would preach.This gentleman, who is considerably past the meridian of life, is tall, finely built, and is possessed of good elocutionary powers.He has a thin, weak voice, but he uses it vigorously, and there is a large expenditure of physical power in his preaching.He is able to hold spellbound his audience as he illustrates his: subject with absorbing stories and telling quotations from Holy Writ.At times he speaks almost in a whisper, and then, raising his voice, the walls re-echoed the burning language of the preacher, He took for his text Solomon\u2019s Song\u20146th chapter and 2nd verse :\u2014** My beloved is gone down into His garden, to the beds of spices, to feed in the garden and to gather lilies.\u201d The following is an imperfect sketch of the discourse : After explaining that by the garden the world is here meant, the preacher proceeded to speak of some of the flowers who had graced this garden.Hannah, who when she had received what she had asked for with such faith from God, became so full of joy and gratitude, that she brought her little boy that he might stand before God for ever ; David, who would dwell in the house of the Lord for ever ; Elijah, who had ascended to heaven in the burning fiery chariot ; Elisha, that man of God so fearless to obey God\u2019s.command ; Daniel, the wise and resolute ; the three lads who, because they would not deny their God, were cast into the fiery furnace ; the Queenly Esther ; the pious Jeremiah ; the Prophet Isaiah ; Mary of Nazareth, so full of holiness ; old Simeon, who 80 appreciated the bounteous gift of God ; John the Baptist, with his resolute straight forwardness and humility ; Peter, bluff, hearty, ready to die with Jesus ; Blind Bartimeus who, with such persistence, called for mercy ; Mary of Bethany, whomade such a blessed choice; Mary Magdalene, so blessed; Stephen, whose portion was a martyr\u2019s crown ; St.Paul, so worthy to convey the Word of God to the Gentiles; Timotheus, with his unsullied soul and readiness to serve ; the jailor of Philippi, who, with his whole household, turned to God ; those little flowers whom Jesus took up and blessed, and many, many others.These were all beautiful flowers in the garden, which gratified the beloved of God, who admired them while walking in the garden.And all we at the present time much resemble these beautiful flowers, long since gathered by a tender hand, for we are all His people, we are all saved by the same precious blood, regenerated by the same Spirit, led by the same Word.While all these are the same, we must all naturally adorn the same garden, and, as the Beloved of God walks In'this garden, we ought all to see how necessary it is for us to live as Ho would have us to live, \u2014have the Word of God in our hearts instead of being filled with jealousy, which has led the ruin of so mauy of God\u2019s people, and has led to contentions in our Church, Now after years of contentions, we may hope that unity is coming again, and will lead to harmony, perfect harmony and unity existing in the Church of Canada and of Scotland.Let us see the bountiful grace of God, consider his laws, each one esteem others bester than himself, and we shall find scattered throughout the word many true children of God.The glory of the New Testament is Jesus Christ, the Son of God ; it tells us of His doings and sayings just as He is the glory of the Church, If Christ be not also in the garden, oh what desolation would be there! And what must the body suffer if Christ be not there.Of what use are the solemn ordinances of religion, of what avail the supper of the Lord, unless we can take Christ into the heart and feed on Him by faith with thanksgiving.We should not be satisfied with any of these, but live on His promises, rely on His word, and we shall be pleasant flowers to Him in the garden, and we shall rejoice to gee Him, to feel that He is near.After Christ\u2019s resurrection, when He in such mysterious manners showed Himself to His disciples, we find that \u2018then were the disciples glad when they saw the Lord.\u201d From a hill he tells them of Himself and how to follow, and to teach others to follow Him, and then went into His garden.But here he comes to visit this earthly garden.Is it an angel that accompanies Him?It is no other than God the Father Himself, who, in company with His blessed Son, is coming to the 283 garden to admire they who loved Him, those beautiful flowers, for * If a man love me he will keep my words ; and my Father will love him, and we will come unto Him and make our abode with Him,\u201d and \u2018\u2018 he that doeth my commandments loveth me, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him,\u201d This is a privilege that Christians only can enjoy\u2014the manifestation of Christ.Has Christ manifested himself t.you to-day?He has said, \u2018\u201c Yet a little while I am with you, and again a little while I am not with you.\u201d It'is a blessed privilege the spiritual presence of Christ.is explains the power of Christ\u2019s people\u2014 they cannot be resisted.He is ever present to watch over all His people in the hour of adversity.One of the flowers in the garden\u2014David\u2014while upon this earth felt so much the importance of the constant presence of God, that he expressed a wish \u201cto dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.\u201d Such was the burden of his soul.He did not do so, however, but when he was without the presence of God we find that he, the man after God\u2019s own heart, fell into grievous sin.Don\u2019t be satisfied with the occasional presence of Cnrist, but cast all your burden upon Him, make a confidant of Him, and the reward will be great.The soul becomes cast down, crished under a weight of guilt; but \u201c¢ Cast your burden upon the Lord and He will sustain thee ;\u201d instantly the burden is taken by Him, and rolled away, never to trouble us again.If any of you are troubled with temptations which beset you on every side\u2014even when in the Church, you hear the Word of God in vain\u2014when you cannot get wicked thoughts out of your heart, see to it that you get the blood of Christ to dispel this, \u2018Why not ask Him to cleanse your soul that you may adorn the garden.When looking at the garden, however, and considering the beauties thereof, the Beloved One says : \u2018 There is no spot in thee.\u201d What ! no spot in me ?my heart is all over spots \u2014dark, wicked spots, and Jesus says that the garden is absolutely spotless.How can this be?Oh, Jesus looks abt our hearts, but what does He see?Why our hearts are covered by His righteousness ; it covers all His people, and that is what prevents Him seeing our wickedness, \u201c He became sin for us who knew no sin, that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.\u201d Jesus, in speaking to His disciples, said : \u2018\u2018 Consider the Lilies of the field how they grow ; they toil not, neither do they spin, and yet, I say unto you, that even Solomon, in all his glory, was not arrayed like one of these,\u201d why God clothed the lilies, Solomon clothed himself.God\u2019s people excel the lilies of the field in beauty just as much as they excelled the beauty of Solomon, because Christ\u2019s people are clad in His own beauty.Ineffable exchange! the innocent suffers that the guilty may go free.The robe of Jesus is richer and more beauteous than that of angels.A.Scottish minister was once asked how it was that he was always so cheerful and happy.He answered: \u201cI take all my wicked thoughts and cover them with the thoughts of Jesus ; all my wicked words I place under His holy utterances, and all my sinful deeds I cover by His deeds, and God looks at me but He does not see my thoughts, words and deeds, but He sees in their stead the blessed thoughts, words and deeds of His holy Son, and all is well with me.\u201d \u2018Oh, the beauty of God! It cannot be made visible to the eyes of sinful men, but love recognizes it.So Mary, seeing this, breaks her box of alabaster and, pours its sweet smelling contents over the head of the Saviour.Ah, the sweet smell, so acceptable to the blest Redeemer, came not from the ointment, but from Mary\u2019s heart.Those that stood by had not the perception of Jesus, and spoke of what a waste this was, but He answered: \u2018\u2018Let her alone, against the day of My burying hath she done this.\u201d Jesus is here to-day; He is going through this large assembly inhaling the precious spices that are ascending from the hearts renewed by His love.There is a spice which he enjoys more than any other, a spice which came down from heaven, and which cannot be found anywhere but on this earth.\u2019Tis thespiceof \u2018\u2018ahumble and a contrite heart.\u201d What are we to understand from the fruit ofthe garden of which the beloved partook ?undoubtedly it is the substantial fruit of righteousness in His people.We speak a good deal of our experiences and feelings; but remember the fig tree.It looked well, Was very green, but when He looked for fruit thereon He found none.\u2018That resembles us somewhat.All clad in our robes of truthfulness, beauty of speech 3 beauties of our obedience to our husbands, wives or parents, attention to prayer-meet- ing and church services.But continue thon in the fear of God, and be steadfast and always abound in love, and our hearts shall send forth sweet spices unto our God.Christ gathers lilies.Which of us, when walking in a flower garden, is not tempted to tread on the green sward, and, stooping, pick some choice specimen, Just so does esus, We may think at theftime that it is hard, we may say, Oh, stay Thy hand; it is necessary to me that that one should be left.Is it for us to judge?If the Lord Jesus wills it, is it for us to demur ?Who are the lilies?Sometimes a sweet little child is suddenly taken away, but not before the little thing has wound itself around its mother\u2019s heart strings, and she has prayed God to save it.Sometimes it is a young man, but he is not taken until his mother\u2019s prayers for him have been remembered, and his eye sparkles at the name of Jesus ; perhaps a young woman is taken, but her heart has had time to become fixed upon her Redeemer, and she has received the blessed assurance, \u201c\u2018 Thy sins be forgiven thee;\u201d or it may be a godly father, or a cherished wife or mother who Christ has taken unto Himself, The great Lord has gathered them up, and removed them from all pain, \u2018When we pluck a little flower it is merely as a passing pleasure, and after a time it falls to vhe ground, withers and is lust, but not so with the Lord Jesus.The flowers are carefully watched by Him.\u2018My sheep are in my fold, none can take them from me,\u201d All that Jesus has plucked since the days of Abel are all fresh as when gathered, Job looked at his ten lilies, all he had left of his once great possessions ; he watered them with the sacrifice of prayer and praise, but God came and plucked them all, Still Job did not complain, He came forth and said\u2014\u2018\u2018The Lord gave and the Lord taketh away, blessed be the name of the Lord.\u201d A great king once called his palace the palace of lilies ; we know not whether it was because of the number of lilies he possessed that he did so, but we know that there is only one palace of lilies, rightly so-called, where the lovely ilies, transplanted by a loving hand, grow and flourish.Oh, may we be not as brambles to be thrown on one side, but as lovely flowers, so that at last Jesus shall come and gather us all as lilies to be taken tothe garden above! He is no ruthless destroyer, but, having emitted our beautiful fragrance, he takes us to abide with Him for ever, LAKE MEGANTIC, In the course of a letter detailing a four weeks\u2019 camping-out expedition, a correspondent of the Sherbrooke Gazette says :\u2014 Your correspondent recently visited Lake Megantic, the well-known fishing ground, in company with two others, and was surprised at the change which has taken place in the locality, Instead of a forest which lined the shore some years ago, one sees prosperous farms and the busy mill, At Chaudiere, both going and coming, we were most hospitably entertained by Capt.Wilson and the other gentlemen of the Colonization Co, of which Mr.White is Managing Director.This Company is doing a great deal to- wars settling that section of country, and, already bas cleared several\u201d tracts and built a house on the shore of Spider Lake, It is their intention to put a steamer on Lake Megantic at no very distant day for the convenience of settlers for freight and towing lumber.Bidding these genial gentlemen goodbye, we rowed up the Lake that night and made the portage over into Spider Lake without difficulty in the morning, There we spent several days fishing, and caught some very fine trout, and then visited a very small sheet of water called Silver Lake, about a mile distant, where wg, bad very good aport, and Spider Lake.wr >

Montrealers at the watering places and other summer resorts for 25 cents a month, free of postage, A NUMBER of papersin the country in'furnishing their readers with \u2018\u2018 original \u201d editorial matter omit to indicate the fact that it is mainly scissored from this, column.Only afew days ago we observed an article from the STAR figuring in the Mail and credited to the Sherbrooke Gazette.THE Telegram says that in Toronto sanitary matters are not so bad as they are in Montreal.This is far from complimentary to the Metropolis, and should stimulate the Board of Health to such action as will remove the reproach.To be behind Toronto is indeed to bear a sorry reputation, and it must be retrieved, even if the City Council be forced to economize in other directions.IN introducing a quotation from an article on Reciprocity,the Toronto Nation says :\u2014 \u2018The Montreal STAR (a journal which displays great force and fairness in its ediborial columns, and the average daily circulation of which, we are pleased to note, has risen to nearly 12,000), states the fiscal needs of this country very plainly.\u201d Following the quotation, it says :\u2014* The only extent to which we would qualify the plain speech of our Montreal contemporary is by adding ¢ if need be\u2019 to its remarks in regard to a corresponding dollar for dollar tariff.Let us impose such reciprocal duties\u2014not in- diseriminately, but\u2014only where our own interests require it, and then the objectionable phrase \u201c retaliatory tarif\u201d could be dispensed with.\u201d A WESTERN journal discourses with a flippancy which cannot but be truly painful to all well balanced minds on the possibility of marriage being made easy by the establishment of a matrimonial bureau.Marriage is an institution which should not be lightly considered, more especially in times of monetary depression like the present, nor should increased facilities be afforded the young and possibly improvident for entering a state from which there is no immediately available exit.The Telegram, which gives itself up to a wildly hilarious review of the proposition, winding up with the suggestion that the Government should assist such a concern with a bonus, should branch off into seriousness and devote itself with assiduity to fostering the cause of a truly National Policy.Tux Franc Parleur is upbraiding its readers for going to the circus, remarking, in effect, that they cried out for soup last winter and will, perhaps, cry out again beforelong.If any went to the circus who could not really afford it, they certainly did wrong, but we believe if the truth were known, very few, if any of those who attended, were unable to well spare the ticket money.If, however, the Parleur believes the contrary, it is a pity it did not tender advice before the circus came and not a scolding after it has gone.We are not going to discuss the merits and demerits of amusements in general and the circus in particular, but will merely say that our contemporary grossly misrepre- gents the nature of the entertainment provided by Mr.Cole.After all, \u2018the Parleur should speak the truth.Tee Courrier du Canada and the Evenement are at it, fighting like cat and dog, again.The Ævenement says that the Editor of the Courrier, when at college, wrote defamatory articles against his superiors, and either was, or ought to have been expelled.The Courrier man denies this, and challenged Senator Fabre to meet with him the Rector of the Laval University, and present his proof.This was agreed to, but when the rivals met they found that the Rector was absent from town, and likely to be away until the end of August.Until then, Quebec must remain in agonizing suspense.It seems to us, however, that the outside world is active enough at present, and these journalists might be better employed in furnishing their unhappy readers with news than in airing their dirty linen in public, THERE is little room for hope, if any ever existed, that the Servian cause will show reviving signs, Internal dissensions, as much as the pressure of Turkish superiority in arms, have helped to bring about | the downfall of the hopes so largely indulged in not a month ago.Prince Milan plainly overestimated his strength and calculated too largely upon the sympathy of Russia, The Montenegrin campaign has been even more signally disastrous, and altogether the uprising of the vassal states of Turkey has failed fo accomplish any effective end.There has been a terrible quantity of bloodshed and a large expenditure of money upon arms and munitions of war, Turkey has been made to suffer and her political system shaken to the centre, but beyond this there is nothing to record, except that England lent ber moral influence to the Turk, and dared the northern powers to dismember the \u201cSick Man\u2019s\u201d European possessions, TrE Mail very correctly says, speaking of agricultural protection :\u2014*\u201c In making up their minds the farmers generally will grasp these two main points, which not all the sophistry of \u2018Tree Trade\u2019 advocates will be able to draw them away from.The first is, the standing injustice of having \u2018Free Trade\u2019 on one side of the border and high Protection on the other ; and the second is the fact\u2014far more to the purpose than any theory of prices \u2014that with the practice and experience of Agricultural Protection our neighbors are well satisfied, because they find it to be for their benefit, They have tried it, they still continue it, and no persuasion can make them abandon it.\u201d The farmers throughout the country are all deeply interested in the establishment of a Fair Play National Policy, and we commend to their attention all articles bearing upon the subject.At the present time desperate efforts are being made to array the agricultural and industrial classes in antagonism, to create \u2018\u2018town\u201d and ountry\u201d parties, in fact, for the purposes Oh professional politicians of the day.Let the farmer beware of this species of agitation.It is not calculated for his benefit, TrE Nation fears that there is some room for anticipating trouble from the warfare now going on between the United States troops and the Sioux, Eventually the Indians will be driven back and forced across the boundary, and then mischief will be sure to follow.It suggests that the Canadian Government would do well to increase the Mounted Police and military force in the North-west, so as to be prepared for any emergency.We agree with the Nation.The scene of the troubles is not very far distant from the frontier, and it is just within the range of possibility that before long the Sioux, who have revolted against the Indian policy of the United States, will have taken refuge in Canada from white vengeance, When they turn up, hungry and reckless, the settlers within their reach will need all the protection that can be extended them, and we therefore commend the snbject to the thoughtful attention of the gentleman who is at the head of the Department of the Interior, GLENGARRY.The Herald has the following :\u2014 LANCASTER, 30th July, 1876.The final meetings in the canvass of the candidates for Glengarry were held on Saturday evening, at Somerstown and Lancaster, At the first named place the candidates, and Mr.Thomas White, jr., and Mr.Henry Sandfield McDonald, made addresses.The meeting at Lancaster was very largely attended.Mr.McBean occupied the chair.The meeting opened with a long harangue by Mr.Hector Cameron, on the moral disqualification of Mr.McNabb, His speech was very coldly received.Mr.B.A.Britton, Mayor of Kingston, followed in a very clever address.in which he protected the Mackenzie Ministry.Mr.Thomas White, jr., then took the platform, and occupied it until midnight, when Mr.McNabb was called upon.He objected to address the meeting, as it was \u2018\u2018 Sabbath morn.\u201d He had the fullest confidence in the voters.The following speech may be taken as the opinion of many of \u2018the oldest inhabitants:\u201d Mr.Cameron, a venerabla looking farmer, rose during Mr.Britton\u2019s speech and said:\u2014I am tired of hearing foreigners speak.(Applause.) I have attended elections in Glengarry for many, many years, and I never knew foreigners come in here to lecture us before ; the candidates should canvass, and if they are not able to canvass half the county, why no matter.Mr.McLennan\u2019s honest enough, no doubt, and Mr.McNabb also, but on account of this man (Mr.Hector Cameron) coming from Toronto to preachto us, I am at a loss to know whether Mr.McLennan is going to represent Montreal or Glengarry.(Hear, bear, and prolonged applause.) On tbat account Mr, McLennan, who was going to get my vote, will not get it now.I shall vote for Mr.McNabb, (Loud applause.) His name is the same as mine, but I'm ashamed of him; he is not a Cameron.(Applause.) I say he isnot a Cameron.I believe he is a McMillan, (Loud applause and laughter.) The Gazette's despatch is as follows :\u2014 LANCASTER, July 30.The largest political meeting ever held at this place was held in MecCrae\u2019s Hall last night.The room was crowded to its utmost capacity, and large numbers stood on the street outside to hear the speeches, which, the windows being all open, they were able to do.The chair was occupied by Mr.George McBean and Mr.Hector Cameron, M.P., as representing Mr.Mec- Lennan, who was attending a meeting at Somerstown, addressed the meeting in an admirable speech, in which he reviewed the policy of the Government, contrasting their acts with their professions.He was followed by Mr.Britton, the Mayor of Kingston, on behalf of Mr.McNabb, who undertook a defence of the administration on the several points referred to by Mr.Cameron.Mr.White, who arrived while Mr.Britton was speaking, having previously addressed the meeting at Somers.town, replied, speaking until midnight, and arousing the wildest enthusiasm of the vast audience.Messrs.McNabb and Me- Lennan, who arrived from Somerstown while Mr.White was speaking, then in a few sentences each simply thanked the: electors present, leaving the issue in their hands of to-morrow.The meeting then broke up with cheers for the Queen, the Chairman, Mr.McLennan and Mr.White, and the large audience dispersed to their homes.The feeling of the meeting was very largely in favor of Mr.McLennan, PRINCE OF WALES RIFLES, The annual matches of this regiment were concluded on Saturday, commencing at 2 p.m, Tae MADEN STAKES\u2014 16 entries; range, 400 yards ; number of

PRIZE.Considerable excitement was awakened in this city among the lovers of the national game of lacrosse, in anticipation of the great contest for the championship between the Montreal Shamrocks and the Toronto Club.\u201c\u201c Our boys\u201d left the city on Thursday full of hope, that they would be able to wrest from their victors of last year the coveted trophy, but we regret to say that their hopes\u2019 were not realized, as they again suffered defeat.The match took place in Toronte™on Saturday, and, the day being particularly fine, the crowd was immense.The interest felt was absorbing, and every game was watched with the keenest interest.The players commenced the FIRST GAME at 3:30.At the start the ball was carried toward the Shamrock goals.8.Hughes endeavord to pass Brennan, the latter checking, and the next moment, being pressed for time by Arthurs, tipped the ball to Hoobin, who threw down toward the Toronto goal, where McHugh secured it and was checked by Hughes, who passed the ball to Ross, Davy in turn checking and bringing the ball down a little past mid-field ; he made a shot for goals, which assed every one, but went a little wide, rennan stopped a shot aimed by 8, Suckling, was in turn checked by S.Hughes, and a struggle ensued, Hoobin and Burke, and Mitchell and Suckling being in it.Burke got the ball.however, and it was soon down field, where McKeown dropped it to J.McHugh, the latter shying the ball in good line, but a little high.Ross at point then secured the ball, and a long throw put it in possession of Massey, who passed it to Suckling.Mitchell got the ball and passed Brennan, put the ball over Hoobin, who came out to check, to Mitchell, and the first game went to the Toronto\u2019s, after five minutes\u2019 play.SECOND GAME.From the first it was a defence game on the part of the Shamrocks, and Hoobin, Brennan and Butler had their hands fall.For a time, in this game, it seemed as if few men of the Torontos were covered, so successful was their hand to hand play.Davy, in mid-field, had checked Massey, had dodged past Henderson with the ball, and was preparing for a long throw, when Robinson came upon him and took the ball, passing it over to Hughes, who dodged Brennan, and tried for another, losing the ball to Moreton, who passed it to Hyland, and it was dropped in front of the Toronto goal, when Moffatt rushed forward, and was about striking it through when S.Hughes came to the rescue with the body check and the ball went out, as it afterwards proved for the last time, going up field, where a stroke from one of the home men sent it through.Time, 12 minutes.THIRD GAME.The Shamrocks had now waked up to the necessity of action, and play throughout the game was sharp and decisive, Ross, Hughes and McEachran in goals had more than enough to attend to.Several times the ball came up to the Shamrock goals, but there was a goal-keeper that .took everything that came in his way, and took it sharply, Burk\u2019s play behind the flags was simply magnificent, and closely checked as he was by Suckling, Arthurs and others\u2014often by two at once\u2014he generally got the ball, Davy and Me- Keown also showed well in the home.Notwithstanding the efforts of Robinson, J.Hughes, Massey and Suckling, Hoobin, Brennan and C, McHugh gave an earnest of their powers, and the ball went from end to end in quick succession, with occasionally a narrow miss from the To- rontos, Davy got the rubber about midfield, and, working well down the field, delivered the necessary shot, the Shamrocks scoring this game in 22 mirutes, FOURTH GAME.In the field, Massey and Robinson, {for the Toronto, and Moreton and Davy, for the Shamrocks, made decidedly the best show ; while Burke in goals was just where he was required.Moreton, Me- Keown and Davy had shots for goals in this game, and it seemed for a time as though there was no getting past Ross at cover-point, or Hughes at point, while MecEachran, behind the flags, was always in the breach at the proper time.Hyland worked hard, but was evidently out of practice, while J.McHugh was quick, but unlucky, going repeatedly close to goals without scoring game.Butler finally got a chance and put the ball through, the Shamrocks winning in 15 minutes.FIFTH GAME, Each club had two games, and the tug of war was looked for.Moreton was the first to capture the ball, and it was not long in assaulting the Toronto goals.It is almost an impossible task to describe the quickness of the play.It was general, and Moreton in the field for the Shamrocks covered himself with glory.A shot for goals would result, only to find the strength of the Toronto's defense, and the ball would again go up to the Toronto flags.The play was from goal to goal, and Burke made several beautiful stops\u2014one in particular a high ball, which caromed off his stick to the back of the flags, and afterwards went down field.Massey passed Davy and McHugh in a run up the field, dodging as he went ; he met Hoobin and tried the body with him, the ball going one Way and the young gentleman and his ! stick the other, while Hoobin picked up the ball, and threw a dangerous ball on the Toronto goals.Moreton, having secured the ball, came rushin passed several fielders.He up tbe field, | nderson gave ; him the body, however, which brought ; him to a full stop, but the lad managed

scrambling for the ball, which was carried hither and thither within only a few inches of the Shamrock goals, Burke down on his knees with his stick across the front of the flags waiting, The ball suddenly came straight for the centre of the flags, but Burke was ready and it was swiped one side, whence he sent it down to the other end.A shot from Davy struck the Toronto flag pole, several shots being put in either too high or too low, and twice game was claimed for the Shamrocks, to be disallowed by the referee.Mr.Steele, on the evidence of the umpires.Finally a well-managed assault was made on the Shamrock goals, and after a desperate resistance the ball was put through by Suckling, the time of game being a few minutes over two hours.NOON TELEGRAMS.Loxpon, July 31, The Telegraph\u2019s

APROMISINGYOUNGJOURNALIST\u2019S TERRIBLE DEATH IN THE INDIAN COUNTRY.A despatch from Fort Laramie says that Leander P.Richardson, a wide-awake reporter and brave, companionable young man, who had many warm friends in this city, was riddled with bullets and scalped by the Indians on Monday last.His mother was the first wife of Albert D.Richardson, who was killed by Daniel Mec- Farland.Young Richardson had no liking for the public schools, and his father sent him to the military school at Farmington, Maine.Afterward he learned to set type, and worked as a compositor.Then he found employment in the Tribunes counting room, and at the time of his father\u2019s tragic death was in \u2018Woodside, His mother died while Albert D.Richardson was a prisoner of war in the South.Leander went to Chicago, and was for a time a reporter for the Inter.Ocean.He was inclined to roam, and travelled to California, and thence through the South.He was a reporter for the New York Tribune from January, 1874, to July, 1875.Then he went to Boston, and assisted his uncle in editing the Congregationalist.He delivered a lecture on \u2018 American Humorists,\u201d and a Hartford publishing firm made \u2018him a proposition that he should write a book\u2019 on the West, : various crack corps, the private tents of The belligerents are favorable to ; gave him an enthusiastic welcome, for the Court, Universities, and other well-known THE MONTREAL EVENING STAR.He intended [to see something of the Indian war for the Springfield Republican, and then go to California, the Sandwich Islands, and around the world.He was about 24 years of age.INTERESTING PEDIGREE.It appears, says the London correspou- dent of the Manchester Guardian, that Mr.Samuel J, Tilden, the Democratic candidate for the American Presidency, has the blood of Oliver Cromwell, John Hampden, and John Jones (one of the judges of Charles I.) in his veins.As far back as the 16th century the Tilden family held a position in Kent, and in 1585 John Tilden was Mayor of Tenterden in that county.He was again chosen to this office in 1609, and in 1623 his nephew, Nathaniel Tilden, was Mayor of that place.This Nathaniel Tilden had a brother, Joseph, who was a merchant in London, and was engaged in fitting out the first vessels which conveyed emigrants to the colony of Massachusetts.In 1634, Nathaniel Tilden and his family embarlkeed on one of these ships, and took up his abode in Massachusetts, and from him is descended in a straight line the Mr.Tilden who may be the next President of the Republic.One of the descendants of Nathaniel Tilden removed to New York, and his son married a Miss Jones, who wa: descended from William Jones, Lieutenant.Governor of Connecticut, and the son o Colonel John Jones, one of the \u2018\u2018 regicides, \u201d the busband of a sister of Oliver Cromwell, and a cousin of John Hampden.From the union of this Mr, Tilden and Miss Jones, Mr, Samuel J.Tilden is descended.AN ENGLISH VIEW.Alluding to the Governor-General\u2019s visit to Quebec, the London Times says :\u2014 \u201cWhile we are still witnessing the birth of a community the future of which we cannot affect to measure, an accident has called our attention to a community which is, in truth, as self-governed as the United States, though it retains the closest connexion of national sympathy with ourselves.Canada is not to be compared in wealth or population with the United States ; nor is Scotland to be compared in wealth or population with England, but those among us who are of the South may admit that the English race would not have played that great part in the world which, without arrogance, we may claim for it, had it not been for the minority of Scotchmen who have contributed to fulfil its history.Canada will never be to the United States what Scotland has bean to England.There is no immediate reason to apprehend a political fusion between the two ; but the common life nourished by a common language and a common literature transcends the limits of political divisions, and meanwhile Canada as av independent community must exercise a powerful ia- fluence over the contiguous Republic, We count it, therefore, as we have said, a happy accident that at the moment when we are overwhelmed with the details of Centennial celebrations at Philadelphia and elsewhere we should receive a report of a meeting at Quebec, where Lord Dufferin pleaded with the Canadians, who maintenance among them of the peaceful monument of a heroic history.\u201d NOTES FROM WIMBLEDON.The Globes Wimbledon correspondent, under date July 15th, says :\u2014 It is impossible to conceive a greater contrast than is presented by the appearance of the camp this year, with a bright sun every day, to the miserable incessant.dampness of last year, when Colonel Gzowski brought over the team from the Dominion that signalized itself by carrying home the Rajah of Kolapore\u2019s Cap.Apropos of this cup there has been a deal of trouble with it at the Custom House, where the officials insisted on opening the case containing it to see whatit was.The general aspect of the camp reminds me of 1874.Last year the rain made everything uputterably dull and wretched, but in 74 the weather was very like that of the present year.There are about 3,000 men s'eeping under canvas at the camp, and the scene is as usual very pretty.The white tents dotting the emerald turf, the buntings of all nations flying in the breeze from the high white flag-poles, the busy crowds of volunteers and visitors, the targets, firing and points, running deer, the sharp crack of the rifles, the camps of the noblemen and gentlemen who carry info camp life the luxuries of civilization\u2014these are some of the leading features of this annual holiday.For a holiday the meeting is \u2018\u201cto the general,\u201d although of course for crack shots it means a lot of real work, Passing along the main street of the camp at the extreme end, after passing the camps of the Fourth Middlesex, London Scottish, London Irish, Victorias, Inns of regiments, THE CANADIAN CAMP comes into view.If is situate nearly on the same site as last year.The Dominion flag waves from a mast of noble height, a good representative of the Canadian pine her forests produce.The camp, under the care of Colonel Kirkpatrick and Major Arnold, looks very gay indeed.All the tents of the team are decorated with the words \u2018\u201c Ontario,\u201d \u201c\u2018Quebec,\u201d *\u2018Nova Scotia,\u201d \u201cSt.John\u2019s,\u201d and so on, in white letters on a red ground.The camp is further charmingly decorated with beds of flowers, and altogether is one of the prettiest camps in the enclosure, Both the Colonel and the Major are indefatigable in promoting the comfort of the team, and in playing the part of hosts to the numerous visitors who call at their reception tent.To-day the number of visitors has been very large, as the London Irish, who are cloge to our camp, are giving a large garden party, and many of their guests have strolled in to call on the Canadians.Last night quite an impromptu concert was got up in the Canadian reception tent, and altogether life is made anything but dull for the men under canvas.To-morrow there will be the usual church parade when the Chaplain-General will preach.THE SHOOTING.As you have learned from day to day by my cable messages, the shooting has been difficult owing to the very bright sunshine just in the eyes of the competitors at the targets and the intense heat.To-day the thermometer was 95 in the shade\u2014and there is only shade enough for a thermometer at the camp.The mirage \u2014the optical illusion arising from unequal retraction which causes the targets to appear bobbing up and down and often to disappear altogether\u2014has been bad every day and to-day worse than ever.One of the team told me that for three of his shots he really could not see the target at all.DEAN STANLEY ON THE MINISTRY.: Dean Stanley has preached in St.John\u2019s Church, Wolverhampton, in aid of the Society for the Employment of Additional Curates.The church was thronged by a congregation representing all denominations.The subject of the sermon was the general consideration of the origin and duties of the Christian ministry in the largest sense.Bishops, presbyters and deacons, and other officers of Christian Churches, differed in all ages and countries from officers of a similar order 1,700 years ago.These variations showed that the order of the Christian clergy, instead of remaining a useless relic of the past, had grown with the variations and growth of Christian society.It was the duty alike of clergy and laity to remember how sacred and how lofty was the pedigree of the ministry of every church and of every sect ; and it was the duty also both of the clergy and the laity to remember how completely each was bone of each other\u2019s bone and flesh of each other\u2019s flesh.The clergy were more what the laity insisted upon that they must be than the laity were what the clergy insisted upon.Each mustdohis very best to enable the other to rise above themselves.The ideal model of a Christian minister\u2014i.e, of a Christian pastor \u2014was that between him and his people there should be a never ending intercourse for their moral and spiritual good.\u201cTo be at one,\u201d said the preacher, \u2018with our country, our parish, to acknowledge nothing as secular which is not, nothing as dangerous except what is uvtrue, to remember that they are not senseless creatures like sheep, but human beings, often superior to ourselves, whom we serve ; to make them feel not their dependence on ug, but their independence ; to foster in them not their party, but their public spirit; to remember that each \u2018individual | soul we deal with has sympathies, feelings, | temptations, lke our own ; to be willing .Board of Public Works.to lay down not only our lives, but, what is perhaps more precious, the life of our order, our party, our peculiar address of speech, for the sake of conciliating all for whom we are responsible\u2014this, and this only, in the full sense is to be a pastor.\u201d Concluding, the Dean exhorted his congregation to sum up their religion in these two maxims : Detest, like true men, that which was really detestable; and love, like true Christians, all that was really lovable.In this way they might become not only the best of auxiliaries to the ; clergy, but the best of curates, and, he might say, even the best of pastors and teachers.THE FREE BATHS OF NEW YORK: The New York Herald, referring to the projected establishment of four new baths, says:\u2014 The free swimming baths since their inception have been one of the best.patronized institutions under the control of the This summer particularly have they been brought into requisition, and from the time they open, at five o\u2019clock in the morning, till they close, at nine o\u2019clock at night, they are full of people.Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays are set apart for ladies, and Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays for men and boys.During the season the twobaths, ore at the foot of Fifth street, East River, and the other at the foot of Bethune street, North River, have each accommodated from 6,000 to 8,000 persons on the days set apart for men, and from 1,000 to 3,000 on the days set apart for women.Wednesday was ladies\u2019 day, and on no day during the last two weeks did the ladies avail themselves in larger numbers of the bathing privileges.At the bath foot of East Fifth street crowds of women and young girls were waiting on the dock before five o\u2019clock in the morning, and between that and eight o\u2019clock over 400 had bathed and gone to their various avocations refreshed for the work of the day.All the morning a steady stream of matrons, with their little baskets and reticules in hand, containing their bathing garments, kept pouring down Fifth street.In the afternoon the crowd became greater, and between seven and nine o\u2019clock in the evening the string- pieces of the wharf were lined with women and girls awaiting their turn.The men are allowed thirty minutes in the bath house, twenty minutes in the water and ten minutes to dress and undress, The women cannot be hurried through soreadily, and they have to beallowed at Jeast three-quarters of an hour.The Leeper at the Fifth street bath, however, Mr.John Mosher, thought they had accommodated at least 4,000 females from 5 am.to 9 pm.At the bath, foot of Bethune street, North River, about the same crowd of women were coming and going all day ;- but, as at the one on the cast side of the city, the greatest number assembled between seven and nine o'clock in the evening.Mrs.Parker and Miss Grant, who have charge of the bath on lady\u2019s day, said thatthe number of females who bathed yesterday would reach about 2,000 or over, and, considering the time that wemen take to dress and undress, it would be almost impossible to accommodate any more.It was noticed that the women who frequented the North River bath were better dressed and seemingly in better circumstances than those who enjoyed the bathing privileges on the east side.There was no distinction made at either piace, however, as to the visitors; all were treated alike by superintendents and assistants, and with a great deal of courtesy.Yesterday the baths were full from early morning until evening by men and boys, who all appeared to appreciate the luxury of afree bath.MORNING MONEY MARKET.NEW YORK.July 31, 10 a.m.Gold.evle 1114 @ 00 Sterling Exchange.\u2026.4884 @ 00 MONTREAL.Greenbacks bought at a discount of.beens 11 @ 10% Greenbacks sold at a dis- ; count

owingjto the damp weather experienced in the Spring the grass became exceeding soft and rich.This had a bad effect on the cattle when they were turned out, and rendered them very thin, so much so that they have not icked up yet, and afe accordingly not to Pe compared with the plump distillery-fed beasts, However, drovers say that these arrivals are now \u2018\u2018 used up,\u201d and that the last instalment was offered on the market to-day.The prices of cattle range from 4c.to 5c.per lb, live weight.The dealers who had cattle on the market were as follows:\u2014R.J.Hopper, of Brighton, 3 loads of grass-fed beasts, one load of which was purchased from H.W.Mix, of Markworth.Amongst these was a beautiful pair of grass-fed oxen which weighed about 3,150 Ibs, each.Mr.Stewart, of Ailsa Craig, had 22 head, the average weight of which was 1,000 lbs.J.Aikens, of Port Hope, 2 car-loads (46 head), which averaged 900 Ibs.David Craig, of Ailsa Craig, 1 carload.Mr.Johnson, 3 loads of distillery- fed, sold before-hand to Montreal butchers, average weight, 1,200 lbs.Pork sold at 63c., live weight,\u201d J.Aikens & J.Denis, of London, had each one car-load on the market.It was reported that John Ryan, of Quebec, sold 20 head of grass-fed beasts which weighed on an average 1,600 lbs.at 5c., for the English market.Mr.Price has brought down 6 car-loads of prime distillery-fed oxen for shipment to England by this week\u2019s steamer.Their average weight was 1,300 lbs.THE INTERIOR OF THE HOOSAC TUNNEL.(From the North Adams (Mass) Transcript.} The temperature of the tunnel is about the same all the year round, the thermometer standing generally at 60°.The air is pure except when there are a great many trains going through, filling the tunnel with smoke ; yet, notwithstanding that, there is now no doubt about the tunnel being able to ventilate itself.When the 500 men were at work, there was so much tmoke from the lamps of the miners, the fires of the blacksmiths, and the trains that were constantly at work, that the tunnellers\u2019 eyes and lungs were very often seriously affected.The arching has not been in any one place, but in sections, wherever there was a possibility of danger from ose and crumbling rock.In all, about 4,500 feet Have been arched, the Jongest section being 500 feet, and the shortest 10 feet.Thus, the workmen were not all together, hut were scattered along the line.After a section of the tunnel had been selected as needing arching, the miners began to remove the rock from the sides and roof for a depth of about three feet, that being the average thickness of the arching.In performing this work constant care was used, and when the extreme liability to danger from falling rocks is considered, it is a wondef that so few accidents have oceur- red.The rock taken down was removed daily 4nd dumped at different points along the rod from the tunnel, that from the roof being received and carried out by platforkn cars that reached within a few feet of it.When the section to be arched had bden properly prepared the masons began their works.laying the brick on wooden arches, called \u2018\u2018 centres,\u201d which were put up every five or six feet.The brickwork was not laid close tr the wall in all parts, a space being left for the water fo run down.Sheet-iron was placed \"between the brick and the wall for protection against water, and the brick was laid with water-proof cement.No part of the arching bas heen slighted, the whole work being.carefully and thoroughly done.A telegraph wire bas been ous through the funuel, and offices ptationed:at both ends, sad warn: ing wil be and leaves given'every time a train enters the tunnel, Manager Prescott * , 2 has appointed R.B.Campbell superintend- T H IR D E D i T ;

\"°C ELRGRAPHIC.00 \u2014_\u2014 ; Jang eh XT, Louis, July 28, - A special from Leavenworth, Kansas, , says a texfible story cefnes from Sidney, Nebraska, a recruiting station on the Union Pacific Railroad;:- not far from Cheyenne, to the effect that the attack made by the Sioux upon Crook\u2019s camp ja Goose Creek proved to be more of a slaughter than a fight, nearly three hundred soldiers of Crook\u2019s command being killed, and the entire command driven across the creek, a mark for the unerring bullets of their savage adversaries.The advices state that on last Wednesday evening Mr.A.T.Fray, the post suttler at Camp Sheridan, arrived at Sid.rey with the information that Lame Deer, a friendly chief, had come inte Camp Sheridan, thirty-six hours from the battlefield, as a courier, bringing the terrible news, and statidg that Genersl Crook had more men killed than Custer had with him in the fatal fight upon the Little Big Horn.The loss of the Indians was not stated, as it is hardly probable that Lame Deer knew, the redskins having driven the soldiers acrosythe creek, and being in possession of the field, leaving them sufficiefit time to bury their dead.LL.Lame Deer also says that the Indians now have full sweep in the Northern country, and propose, after driving the miners from the Black Hills, to make a clean sweep of the agencies, following which they propose to devote their attention to the different stations on the line of the Union Pacific Raïlvead.- The Sioux feel great elated over this, their greatest victory.Farge numbers of braves who had deserted the sthndard of Sitting Bull have now rejoined his forces.A feeling of depression and gloom seems to have taken possession of the soldiers in « : T ir Tate as certain, and who do not expect to see their friends in the States again.This is the substance of the story, as told by Mr.Fray, of Sidney, being what he heard from the lips of Lame Deer himself, but nothing of an official character has been yet received at Fort Leavenworth relating to it.New York, July 31.Four companies of the 1st Artillery left here yesterday for Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, to take part in the Indian campaign.The

years of age, had been married for six years and leaves a young wife to mourn his sudden and untimely demise.He was a steady, respectable hard-working man, but for some time previous to his death had

surprised the spectators at the base-ball and cricket matches played inÿEngland in 1874 by the Boston and Athletic Clubs, as the playiof the basemen in handling the ball thrown or batted tô _\u2014ogauded-adguite a feabare of their displays on the field, and it let in new light upon the cricketers as to\u2019 the value of paying more attention to fielding in their game than they hitherto have done.The amateur season of 1875 was an exceptional one in every respect; never before did so many clubs take the field, and never before were so many fine games played.As hitherto the college clubs bore off the palm in fipe play, the nines of old Yale and our Bishops again winning the honors of championship.The greater facilities they have for practice, and the fact that they present more educated talent on the field, gives them an advantage.If there is one thing which the experience of each season\u2019s play more conspicuously proves than another, it is that brain power is one of the essential requisites in a successful base-ball team.The best college club match of 1874 was that between Princeton and Yale.The former winning, as follows: \u2014 P.\u2014100000020-3 Y\u2014-000000000-0.The best amateur match of 1874 was played at Lowell, Mass., Lowell vs, Live Oaks, of Lynn, as follows: \u2014 L\u20140 0 00001001, L.O.\u20140 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0\u20140, The best contest between an amateur nine and a regular professional team in 1874 was Olympics, of Paterson, N.J., vs, Atlantics, of Brooklyn, N.Y, \u2014 0.\u2014000000000\u20140.A\u2014-010000000-1 The best foreign game ever exhibited outside the United States was the match played on the Edgehill Cricket Grounds, Liverpool, England, July, 1874.It was the best too ever played between to regular bage-ball clubs.The score at the close of the 9th innings stood at 9 to 9, thereby requiring 10 innings to be played.The best Canadian match occurred at Kingston, 15th July, 1875, between Maple Leaf, of Guelph, and the St.Lawrence, of Kingston.No less than 12 innings were played before the game was won by the St.Lawrence men, as follows: \u2014 M.L.\u20140 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0\u20142, St L\u20140 000000020013.THE CROPS IN GREAT BRITAIN, From a private source we learn that, is beillg experienced by our trans-Atlantic friends, As the cold weather experienced in the early part of the season has destroyed the vermin, whichnot unfrequently in similar seasons have destroyed the grain erop, the harvest promises to be both early and bountiful.\u201cWheat presents a long, clean, well-filled ear, while barley and oats are not far behind, but also look very promising.Still, should storms occur, it is probable that a deal of damage might be done, as the grain is rather top-heavy from the drought.In some localities in the Southern counties harvesting has already commenced, and bythe second week of August it is expected will be general.In Ireland the potato crop is not all that could be desired, and it is feared that it will fall considerably below the average, Temperature in the shade, by standard Ther mometer, observed by Hearn, Harrison & Oo., Opticians and Mathematical Instrument

But when the lawyer returned and aroused him, to ask his intentions, he looked about bim with such a mixture of wounded pride, with such a flutter of anxious apprehension, such vain attempts \"to disguise all under a show of indiffer- ence, ag cut them a1 to the quick, \u201c If you will let me make a few notes, T will prepare the will by morning,\u201d said the lawyer, with painful interest, anxious to spare his old patron and master.\u201cI shall only require assurance Fof your meaning.\u201d \u201cNo, my will must be signed, sealed, and delivered by myself this night,\u201d said Sir John.\u201cAs you will.\u201d \u201cYou are positive\u2014certain that your innocence will be publicly proved?\u201d he asked, « Publicly\u2014certainly; as publicly as the accusation was made,\u201d \u201cNo taint of any kind will rest on our old and honored name.\u201d Philip bowed his head and seemed whol y unable to reply.\u201cI know what you mean, my son.The taint you now allude to refers to her\u2014to him\u2014to the dismal fact of my connection with these people who have so basely deceivedme.Is it so, my son?\u201d «It is so, my father\u2019 said Philip, gently, 4 \u201cI can now dictate my will,\u201d said Sir | John, with a deep sigh.clear and unmistakable as English words could make it.\u2019 The will was witnessed by the lawyer, | the strange Frenchman, and the old ser- | vant, after which Sir John desired to be helped to bed.He was very unwell, and, despite his own refusal, Philip sent for a doctor, who declared at once in favor of complete quiet and repose.He then wrote a prescription and left, promising to call early the following morning.\u201c And now,\u201d said Sir John, closing his eyes, \u201clet me know the worst.Iam fully prepared; and prepared, also, to meet my Maker, Justice, full justice, shall be done, Philip, to you, and ali who need it.\u201d .You will have to listen to a long story,\u201d urged Philip; \u2018\u2018 had you not better wait unti: to-morrow ?\u201d «No.I will not sleep upon it.Imagination pictures worse things than reality canshow.I will hear all now,\u201d Alas! he was mistaken.There are realities which no fancy could suggest.t You will hear the story from the lips of this gentleman,\u201d said Philip.\u2018Who is be ?\u201d « Monsieur Suchet, head of the secret police of Paris,\u201d replied Philip.\u201c Most happy to make the gontleman\u2019s acquaintance,\u201d said poor Sir John, straggling, not for composure, it appeared, but for gaiety ; \u2018but I wish that I made it under more pleasant circumstances.\u201d \u201cBe as brief as you cap, monsieur, I beg,\u201d whispered Philip.Sir Jobn heard him, but made no sign.It was painful to witness the struggle to assume a calm, which so strongly contrasted with the nervous and protracted grasp of the hand, and the wild agitation of his looks.And so, in the gloomy night, with closed doors, with the noise and clatter of the streets heard distinctly, the baronet heard the story\u2014a story of crime, of deception, of infamy unparalleled.\u201cGreat heaven !\u201d groaned Sir John, in a perfect convulsion of agony, have mercy on them, for I cannot! What have I done that such agony should be mine ?\u201d And his voice sinking low, after a wild murmur of sounds, the broken- spirited man went into strong convulsions.The medical man returned, the lawyer and police-agent retired, and Sir John, at midnight, was under the sole charge of his son, occasionally relieved by Leslie, who refused, on this memorable occasion, to take any rest.About midnight al! was still.The baronet having been forced to swallow a composing draught, slumbered heavily.Philip had retreated into the hollow of the alcove, where he was completely hidden ; the lamp burned low and g'oomily, and the domestic came and went on tiptoe, examining his master occasionally with an anxious eye, but seeing no alarming change as yet to cause uneasiness.About this hour Lady Laura returned from a party, given in honor of the next day\u2019s marriage\u2014a party which had brokgn up late.Before relieving herself of the trappings of gaiety and dissipation, she walked towards her husband\u2019s room, to be met by the valet, with a significant lifting of the hand, and a low \u201c Hush,\u201d \u201c Sir John is very ill\u201d he saïd ; \u201che has been so ever since Mr.Heathcote brought the gentleman from London,\u201d he added.\u2018 Hag your master been exciting him- eelf 2\u201d she asked, fixing her eyes strangely upon the inanimate form on the bed; \u201c-signing any papers ?\u201d \u2018Yes, my lady; master signed some papers, which the lawyer took away.\u201d ¢\u201c A, ways considerate\u2014always thought- full My poor brother's affairs, doubtless.\u201d Had Laura possessed the wisdom of the serpent and the innocence of the dove, she could not have uttered words more calculated to create a revulsion of teeling in the heart of Sir John.But he was insensible to all outward life, dreaming the dream of coming eternity.She looked long and fixedly in his face, and suddenly his eyes opened.They met hers ; but with such an expression of horror, of loathing, of disgust, as shook even the nerves of Lady Desborough, She made a movement to take his hand, unconscious of the face bent on her from the dark and gloomy corner of the alcove.But she heard her husband's words, and she saw his hand withdrawn.« Philip, my son ! where are you?Will you not save me from this woman ?\u201d She turned, and went out, wishing that the great mountains wou.d fall and crush her, or that the earth would yawn and swallow her up.Something had happened ; a fearful blow had been given to her power and influence, unless, indeed, Sir John were out of his mind, She walked straight to her room, and \"would have given all that the world contained to have changed places with the children, or the nurse, in the next apartment.The poorest and most desolate being on the face of the earth could not be go wretched as she was ; for was she not found out ?Should she not flee at once, before Philip, or somebody, came to thrust her forth ?\u2014take her children, and shelter her- selfat the uttermost end of the earth?Somehow, she had never believed the account of Philip's death, It seemed such very good news, such certainty of immunity, that it was not lightly to be credited.She seated herself in her arm-chair and closed the door ; her fire was out, but she never aroused her -maid to re-light it, though the bitter air pierced her through and through, and she shivered with the cold, She had allowed her rich trappings to fall around her to the ground unheeded, uncared for.\u2018Whither should she fly ?Nowhere where the vampire of her existence could not follow her\u2014could not track her out.There remained, therefore, nothing but to temporize.Sir John Desborough was evidently too ill to act in any way.Could she only get over this marriage quietly, there would be many to befriend her as relatives.Besides, what did Sir John know, and who had told him anything?It was not easy to cross-question his own valet.She would waylay the doctor in the morning.She did eo, on his coming out, and heard that there was no change in the programme of the day, Sir John insisting on Bis serious illness being concealed, He had just sent for Mr.Heathcote, \u201c But can I not remain with him ?\u201d ghe urged, looking a little hardly into his inscrutable face; \u201cit is my place\u2014my \u201cduty \u201cMy dear madam, our patient must be humored ; he wishes: you to take no notice of his illness,\u201d said the courtly doctor, who had just pocketed a very large fee, and was dévoted to his om- -ployers, Lady Laura, quite sick at heart, tifrned away, and proceeded to dress herself for the wedding that never was to take place.At fen o'clock, robed in silks and satins, wreathed with smiles, and yet crushed by deadly fear, she went forth, At the same moment almost Heathcote entered, to find Philip seated hand in bard with his.father, over whose face already seemed to spread the gray film of death, \u201cHow is Sir John ?\u201d he asked, ¢ Dying, my friend,\u201d replied the baronet, in a deep and hollow voice ; \u201cbut with still life enough in me to do justice to my noble, my much-injured son.\u201d « Good heavens\u2014have we then all been deceived ?\u201d cried Mr, Heathcote.« Deceived, betrayed, lost 1\u201d murmured Sir John.\u201cBut this is a strange moment to discover all\u2014this wedding day.\u201d \u201cThere will be no marriages to-day,\u201d said Philip, sternly.\u201cDid that wretch, Montague, dare but to approach my darling Ellen, the law would step between them, and separate the living from the dead, for unto these does he belong.\u201d \u201cSir 1\u201d « Heathcote, seat yourself\u201d said Des- borough ; \u201cand listen to your old neighbor and friend.\u201d And incredulous and horror-stricken, Heathcote did listen to the story of Sir John Desborough\u2019s fearful matrimonial deceptions.\u201cIt is a just Providence brings you in .| time, Philip,\u201d he said, at last, wringing And he did so, without further inter- yuption\u2014a short, pithy, satisfactory wid; | the other's hand, \u2018to save me from infinite shame and infinite despair.Good heaven, the man\u2019s a felon, a forger\u2014a\u2014a \u2014never was 50 amazed and horrified in all my life.What is to be done ?\u201d \u201cYou will have a good excuse,\u201d answered the baronet, quietiy; * send for the doctor.I am going fast.\u2019Tis better so.I could not have faced my shame.The world will now say, ¢ Poor fellow, he hag been deceived, and of the dead we will speak tenderly.\u201d The doctor came, and his glance was significant.\u201cThere is a general breaking-up, I fear,\u201d he said ; \u2018 men have recovered, and lived after such an attack ; but medicine has done its best.Nature alone can save now-\u2014my presence is useless here ; it is warted elsewhere.\u201d And he went out, leaving none with the sick man, save Heathcote and Philip, who sat motionless beside the bed\u2014the first overwhelmed with anger, remorse, and shame; the latter crushed by grief, and yet grateful for the mercy which had \u201cbeen vouchsafed him of his father's forgiveness.Sir John\u2019s lips moved several times, as if in prayer, and then his eyes opened.He gazed around;

and the long sides of the triangle make as good a scuffle hoe as can be wanted.Numerous hoe patterns have been sent us for trial at different times, but, as above stated, we incline to give the preference to this, as combining the different objects of such a tool to better advantage than any of the others, NON-HEADING CABBAGES, A writer in a recent number of the American Agriculturist says \u2014 Last autumn I was mourning over an unusual number of half-developed cabbages, which were only fit to be fed to the cows, and mentioned the fact to a Duchess County farmer, who is in business in New York, and has lately bought a farm near us, asking if his crop had turned out badly.His answer was, that he had no | more soft heads than he wanted, or to the effect that he would feel disappointed if he had not a considerable number.Now we, neither of us, raise cabbages for market, but for our own consumption mainly, and I was utterly at a loss to know what he could do with a quarter of his crop that failed to make heads.He told me that he dug a wide trench, so deep that after some top soil was thrown in he could set the cabbages out in the trench as close as they could stand, and their heads would not come up level with the top of the ground, When planted, he covers the trench with boards and some brush, cornstalks, salt, hay and earth on the top, keeping it open at the ends or elsewhere until cold weather, and then covering it close, He said they would all have firm, solid heads in the spring.we are enjoying the best cabbages we ever ate.They are rather small to be marketable, say 43 to 6 inches in diameter, solid and sound, crisp and tender, as delicate as caunliflowers, and what is most remarkable, I never know when we are going to have cabbage for dinner until I see it upon the table.The great objection I have to this most wholesome and delicious vegetable is, that it usually fills the house with its perfectly detestable odor, go to have cabbage without this drawback is worth all the trouble it costs, If these winter-headed cabbages could once become known in the market, I am confident their merits would command for them a ready sale all through the spring.The cabbages in market at this season are pretty poor.They are very apt to be slightly decayed, and will keep but a little while, as they wilt at once, and soon after rot.I wish now that I had enough to test the market with, but I have not, and write this partly in the hope that somebody else will do it next yaar.CARE OF DAIRY UTENSILS.We condense the following sensible advice from an article in the New-Ængland Farmer, by its dairy editor : All dairywomen are aware that every utensil used for milk, cream, butter, or cheese, must be kept scrupulously clean, Wood, tin, stone, earthenware, porcelain and glass are all used more or less in the dairy for different purposes, but wood, tin and stone ware are most common.For milking, for setting milk, and for keeping cream, we have adopted good, heavy tin, as on, the whole, the most practicable for anything we have ever used.Every tin utensil used for wilk or cream should have the joints filled as smoothly as possible\u2019with solder, so there shall be no crevices in which particles of milk will lodge, making them very difficult to cleanse by ordinary washing.Tt would pay to soak all tin pails and pans for a short time in cold water before washing, if one had water both plenty and convenient, but few of us are so blessed.Cold or warm water ohly should be used for the first washing whenever the milk is sour enough to curdle boiling water.Boiling water or steam will kill the germs of taint and putrefaction for the time being, but it will not remove the particles of sour milk as readily as moderately warm, or even cold water.After the utensils are washed as clean as possible, scalding in boiling water makes purity sure, but if they were absolutely clean scalding would be unnecessary, Many people still use wooden milk pails; they are light and cheap, and, if they could be keptperfectly sweet and clean, would not be very objectionable, but as it is nearly impossible to keep them sweet, we long ago discarded them entirely, and have adopted tin instead.Tinware usually rusts out before it wears out, but a tin pail seldom if ever rusts, and a good one will last many years.The objection to wood is that it shrinks and swells every time it is dried or washed.Clean wood, with the pores all filled with clean water, would probably absorb but little milk during the half hour it wasin use, but if the material is dry, the milk fis absorbed into the pores, where it is soon locked up by the swelling of the wood, When the wood dries again, the water of the milk dries out, but the condensed milk, in the form of fat and curd, is held in the substance of I tried it, and at the time I write (April) : of the wood, and after a short exposure to the atmosphere, becomes rancid and putrid, Grease once inside of a board will stay there, and, like grease on cloth, will only godeeper, and be more diffused through the material, by heatingin the sun.We suppose all buttey-makers know that there is nothing better for handling butter than wood well soaked in water, but perhaps all do not know exactly why it is so, We have seen at a neighboring butter factory a large, nice-looking marble table used as a butter-worker, and at first were a little inclined to harbor a slight feeling of envy, when we thought of our plain, wooden worker at home, but when the operator informed us that the butter would not clean readily from the marble, and also that it seemed to abstract the color from the butter that adhered to it, we were more than ever satisfied that good, clean, sweet, hard wood, well soaked in pure water, is, on the whole, the best material for,, butter-paddles, butter-workers, and butter-moulds.But why is it that butter does not stick to wood as to metal?Simply because the pores of wood fill full of water, and water and oily substances do not readily mix.If wood is used dry, butter will stick to it, because particles of butter enter the wood and one particle of butter will adhere to another particle.If we begin to work butter on a table, or press in a mould that is not fully saturated with water, the butter will enter the pores of the wood, and we can do nothing with if until we scald out all the butter that is in the wood and fill its place with water, A clean piece of wood may be prepared for handling butter by simply soaking in water hot or cold.Hot water fills the pores quicker than cold, but there ends the difference ; greasy tools must be scalded before they can be used for butter, Having finished using wooden butter utensils, they should be scalded in boiling water to remove all grease that adheres, ; and then dried in an airy place, but not in | the sun.We have a churn that we have used every week for more than three years, which no one but ourselves has ever washed, It is as sweeet now as the day it was sent from the factory\u2014its odor only reminds one of the pine wood of which it is made, but it has been dried only in the shade, and of course has not been excessively dry at any time.Now, if we had dried it till the pores of the wood were all exposed, and the surface full of little checks, which would have absorbed portions of the cream, and held it till tainted, we should have had one of the causes of poor butter.The oft repeated injunction to \u2018\u2018keep everything about the dairy perfectly clean,\u201d should be posted over the door of every dairy room, and another might be added: \u2014 \u201cDon\u2019t dry wooden butter tools all to pieces in the sun, and, if they do get too dry, see that they are swelled and filled completely full of clean, cold water, before they come in contact with milk, cream or butter.\u201d CONVENTION OF HOP.GROWERS, The second quarterly meeting of the Hop-Growers\u2019 Union of Central New \u201cYork was held at Hamilton, Madison County, on Tuesday, July 18.Notwithstanding the great heat of the day, and the unfavorable time of the year for farmers to leave their business, there was a large attendance of representative hop- growers when the Convention was called to order, at 10 a.m., in Tripp's Hall.L.Mason, of Clayville, Oneida County, the President, presided, and G.E.Morrow, of Knoxboro, Oneida County, served as Secretary.The proceedings opened with a discussion concerning hop-box shades for the protection of pickers, Growers are accustomed to make various sorts of shades to be attached to the boxes for this purpose.Numerous patents have also been taken out for such shades, When the season of picking opens, growers are often annoyed by persons who go from yard to yard threatening to enjoin them from using the shades made by themselves, and threatening a royalty.Some of the claims are no doubt just, while many others are spurious.Many farmers, in the hurry of the harvest, will pay a few dollars rather than suffer the expense and trouble of a suit at law, It was moved in the Convention that the Union protect growers against these men, and endorse them when a test case should arise.The motion was laid upon the table indefinitely.At the last meeting held in Clinton, a committee of seven practical growers was appointed to make reports regarding the best methods of harvesting, curing and marketing hops.At the opening of the afternoon session, a number of these re- orts were heard, G.E, Morrow, of Knox- oro, was the first member heard.An abstract of his interesting and practical paper is as follows : After dwelling upon the importance of great care inharvesting, and upon the desirability of the grower owning a kiln of his own, so that he may be independent, the speaker urged growers to pick their hops well ; and todo this it is necessary to treat the pickers with consideration, serving all alike.Not more than one box should ever be put in & sack, and not less than three yards of burlaps should be used in making the@sack, Thus scalding of the hops before they reach the kiln will be avoided.Hops should not be permitted to remain in the sack more than three hours after picking, and persons should not be allowed to sit upon them, If it is necessary to store the hops in the sacks for a long time, untie them and let them stand open, thus permittin odors and damps arising from jheat and vermin to escape.The kiln should not be overloaded in drying.If the hops are green or rusty, the fire should be slow at first, The speaker alluded as follows to this important topic: \u2018Commence burning brimstone as soon as the heat strikes the hops; close the draft, but not too tightly, as there is danger of scorching the hops.\u201d He had not found it advisable to make a large cowl.He recommended a circular doorin the cowl, and a small cord and pulley attached ; while bleaching, this door should be closed ; when the process of bleaching is ended, raise the door in the cowl, and also the drafts below, In this way the air may pass through the layer of hops, rendering them sweet.\u2018\u2018If you have a kiln of hops,\u201d he continued, \u2018\u2018 that is very ripe and red after drying, and if you find that there were not green hops enough among them to steam them through for a good sample, shove the hops to one corner of your dry room ; and if there are 30 or 40 boxes in the heap, throw upon them four or five pails of water; mix them thoroughly ; spread them on the kiln; start a slow five; start the brimstone burning as goon as you start your fire; if the stove is not hot enough, place some live coals in the brimstone, If you do this you will have a sample of hops that may go with the first picking ; be sure to close the trap-door while bleaching.\u201d The speaker strongly recommended the \u201clate style ventilator.\u201d He preferred it to the old fashioned cowl or hood.It consists of a box with a roof, and itis large enough to let the steam escape.The aperture in the ordinary cowl is too large, \u2018the draft being too strong, and causing the brimstone to pass through the hops, thus being of little use.The steam should be confined while bleaching, and the hops should be turned before they are husky and crisp on the surface.If there are reen hops on the surface when the layer is turned, they will do no harm if brimstone be burned as soon as they are turned.Those already bleached will thus retain their color.Never mingle hot hops with cold ones in the dry room; a bad flavor will thus be generated.The speaker concluded as follows \u2014\u2018\u2018 Do not press your hops too soon after drying, as they are then more likely to heat; do not use too large pins in the bales, as they do not add much weight to them, and they add nothing to the quality of the beer.Keep yourselves well posted in regard to the prices of hops, and sell when you get a.good price.Sell when buyers are buying ; do not wait until they have filled \u201ctheir orders, and do not wish to buy.\u201d A brief report was presented by H.Henderson, of Madison, He would place the hops upon the kiln as soon as they are picked.Burn the brimstone as soon as the layer of hops is dried through.They should not be stirred until they have begun to dry.The layer should then be carefully turned, and brimstone again burned.À good color and texture are thus always secured.Mr.Henderson closes the drafts when the brimstone is first applied.He is accustomed to sprinkle the hops, when they are very red, before bura- ing brimstone, and to mingle salt with the brimstone.The proper shade of color in bleaching may be decided by observation.A rich straw color, similar to the Bavaria hop, is preferable to any other.A brfef report was rendered by E.Faz 5», - who urged that, in order to secure better picking and a more just payment, the pickers should be paid according to the weight of hops picked, rather than the number of boxes.He describes how he had fixed a canvas, in drying, about two feet above the surface of the hops, thus holding the steam for a longer time.He had found moistening by steam, when necessasy, preferable to wetting directly with water.He was not in favor of heavy layers upon a kiln, These reports were followed by discussion, in which the opinion was urged that the rusty color cannot be entirely eradicated by bleaching.À large amount of green hops in the kiln, sufficient to produce steam, may assist inremovingit.J.P.Nelson spoke of the patent steamer used in sweating hops.He was not fully in favor of this machine, though English dryers had been successful in its use, He said that most dryers let the hops remain too long upon the cloth after they are dry.This produces a brittle, chaffy texture, which is not popular.He believed the rusty color could not be completely removed by bleaching with brimstone.Mr, Mason recommended the wetting and drying of scalded hops to restore the color.The remainder of the afternoon was devoted to the hearing of reports respecting production at home and abroad.letter from Scharrer & Sons, Nuremberg, Germany, was read.It announced that the crop in Germany, Belgium and England now promises to be light.The growth of the vine had been severely checked by vermin, The vine, generally, is not more than half up the pole, and the blight is in some localities very severe, The crop cannot now, however, be predicted with certainty.A large storage of the crop of 1875 is in the hands of brewers in Germany and England.Trade is slow and unsatisfactory, and the barley crop will be abundant.From London, Messrs.Woolloton & Son, under date of July 3, report that \u201cin many parishes where the attack of vermin has been severe there is a decided improvement, but others seem going into the worst stages of blight; the great increase of hop plantations tends to diminish anxiety as to shortness of supply.Belgian accounts are more favorable; but Bavaria and Bohemia are suffering from weaker vine and severe blight.The imports of the past month, according to the custom lists, were 2,358 bales, being 2,218 bales more than in June, 1875.\u201d Very significant and important reports were obtained from growers in the hop- producing towns of Oneida and Madison Counties, where three-fourths of the hops grown in the United States are produced.The numerous rains of the early spring produced a very rank vine in nearly all yards, but the hot sun which accompanied them seemed to wither the tender heads, and to prevent their growth.Hence there are very numerous \u201cmuffle heads.\u201d Nearly all new yards are poor.The arms are few, and do not grow far down the vine, A severe storm of hail lessened the yield in Marshall this year 2,000 bales, and in Augusta about 800 bales.It is gafe to predict that the yield will not be more than two-thirds that of last year.Returns from Vernon, Augusta, Sanger- field, Marshall, Kirkland and New Hartford, in Oneida County, and in Eaton, Stockbridge, Brockfield, Lennox and Georgetown are unanimous in reporting this decrease from last year\u2019s yield.Similar reports were received from Watertown, Jefferson County, and Malone, St.Lawrence County.The proceedings closed with the hearing of the reports, The next special meeting of the Union for discussion will be held at Deansville, August 22nd, The next quarterly convention will occur at Waterville, upon the fourth Tuesday in September.FACTS WORTH KNOWING.Much of the trouble experienced in postal matters arises from carelessness, and a few general hints may be found of value :\u2014 See that every letter, newspaper, or packet is securely folded and sealed, for every such packet has to be several times handled, and in the mail-bag is exposed to compression and friction.When dropping a letter or newspaper inty the letter box, see that it passes through and falls into the box.If it sticks in the slit, it may easily be taken out.Carefully secure every letter containing money or valuables, first with gum or mucilage and then with wax, and be sure to leave a good impressien of a seal.Always obtain a receipt for a registered letter, and never think of sending money or valuables By mail without registering the letter.When letters are delayed or missing, communicate immediately with the Imspector of the Division in which the Post Office is situated.In case of a missing letter state the exact contents, address, the office at which the letter was posted, the name of the person by whom posted and the name of the person by whom received at the office.In case of a delayed letter or paper, send the envelope or cover in an entire state to the Inzpector, £o that the place of delay may be ascertained by an examination of the post marks.In the event of a supposed abstraction ef money or value fram a letter, send the letter and cover to the Inspector for the Division in which is situated the office at which the letter was delivered, stating day and hour on which delivered, name of Postmaster or Clerk by whom delivered, and persons by whom received.Never seal with wax letters for the East and West Indies, and other hot climates, as the wax melts and letters adhere to one another.The practice gives rise to serious inconvenience and injury.Under the criminal acts of 1869, whosoever is convicted of carrying about his porson any bowie knive, dagger or dirk, iron knuckles, skull-oracker or slung-shot, shall be subject to a fine, before any Justice of the Peace, of not less than ten and not more than forty dollars, and in default to imprisonment for a term not exceeding thirty days.The carrying of a sheath knife in any of the seaport towns or cities entails a like penalty, but the act does not apply to seamen and Triggers.Larceny is the wrongful taking and carrying away of the personal goods of any one from his possession with a felonious intent to convert them to the use of the offender, without the consent of the owner.The requisites of the offence are: 1.The taking; 2.The carrying away; 3.The soods taken ; 4.The owner of the goods; 5.The owners dissent from the taking; 6.The felonious intent in taking.An unauthorized gift by a servant of his master\u2019s goods is as much a felony as if he sold or pawned them.\u2018Whosoever, being bailee of any chattle, money, or valuable security, fraudulently takes and converts the same to his own use, or to that of any other person not the owner, although he do not break bulk, or otherwise determine the bailment, is guilty of larceny, and may be convicted upon an indictment.This section does not extend to any offence punishable on summary conviction.Forgery is the fraudulent making or alteration of a writing to the prejudice of another\u2019s right ; it is further the false making of an instrument with intent to prejudice any public or private right.The crime is not confined to the falsification of mere writings; it plainly extends to seals, stamps and all other visible marks of distinetion by which the truth of any fact is authenticated or the quality and genuineness of any article warranted.The Dominion Senate consists of 77 mem-=' bers.Ontario and Quebec send 24 each, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick 10 each, Prince Edward Island 4, British Columbia 3, and Manitoba 2.Elk, Moose, Deer, Cariboo, Fawn and Hare may be hunted in the Province of Quebec in the months of September, October, November, December, and January, to the first Febraary, when the close season commences.The Masonic Lodges of Montreal are ag follBws: St.Andrew\u2019s, St.George\u2019s, Zetland, Kilwinning, Victoria, Les Cœurs Unis, Prince Consort, Union, Striet Observance, Elgin, St.Lawrence, Antiquity, Mount Royal, Mount Moriah, Izabud Council, Leblanc Lodge, BRAIN EXHAUSTION.Me.Jaurs I.FELLOWS, St.JomN, N.B.SLR,-Having, while at your establishment, carefully examined your precriptions, and the method of preparing your Compound Syrup, I feel anxious to give it a fair trial in my practice.For the last twelve months I have done 80, and I find that in Incipient Consumption.and other diseases of the Throat and Lungs, it has done wonders.Inrestering persons suffering from the effect of Diptherie, and the cough following Typhoid Fever, prevalent in this region, it is the best remedial agent I have ever used.But for persons suffering from exhaustion of the powers of the brain and aervous system, from long- continued study or teaching, or in those cases of exhaustion from which so many young men suffer, I know of no better medicine for restoration of health than your Compound Syrup.- ;
